Placing trust in another person is the highest honor we can give them. If trust is ever compromised, it’s hard to get back…

Free Yourself…
Is there someone in your life you need to forgive? Perhaps an ex, a parent, or even yourself? Forgiveness is hard. We hold onto past hurts, giving them life, but keeping the pain inside hurts us. It robs us of living fully today.
I had to forgive my parents for years of emotional and physical abuse. Fortunately, the damage they did to my self-esteem wasn’t permanent. By actively practicing gratitude, over time I was able to see my parents more clearly, understanding why they acted the way they did. I forgave them, and I was free. You can do it, too. Start with gratitude…
Birthdays…
We recognize them, we celebrate them, and sometimes we dread them. We should celebrate every day we are alive, birthday or otherwise…
Story Time…
Behind what we see lies a unique, beautiful story. Everyone has one. What chapter are you currently writing?
Driven…
Whatever you get excited about, do more of that. The world needs driven people who are trying to do good. As for me, I’m just trying to spread some kindness, compassion and humor into a world in desperate need of it…
Peaceful…
I love the quiet of early morning. Peace and quiet allows me to gather my thoughts, communicate with our Creator and prepare to face the world. No one can rob you of your peace, unless you allow them to…
Learn This One Word…
Learn to say no to people who are not bringing value to your life. It’s your choice…
Disagreements…
I want to suggestions it’s okay to disagree with someone. If you ever find a person who agrees with everything you say or believe, that person is a doormat. Listen and learn from others. It isn’t a threat to your convictions or beliefs. Differing opinions are part of what makes life interesting. We are better together, whether we agree or not…
Writer’s Block!
Today I have it. Since June 9, 2019, I have posted something here every day. I will be back tomorrow with sometime new, but today it isn’t happening!
Memorial Day…
Memorial Day is a Remembrance Day established in 1868 that officially became a holiday in 1971. We are called to remember the brave men and women who died while serving our country in the military. At 3:00 p.m. local time, we are asked to observe a moment of silence in remembrance of them for their dedication and service to the United States. We have freedoms here in America that others don’t have. What some take for granted others cherish. It is because of our freedom that people can peaceably protest or fail to stand for the National Anthem. Whether we agree with these things or not isn’t the point. We have the freedom to choose.
So however you are spending the day, with family and friends, barbecuing or on the lake, I encourage you to take a moment at 3:00 to pause and reflect. We must #neverforget…
